The Pittsburgh Steelers may be first place in the AFC North with a 4-3 record, but the health of Aaron Rodgers is key to them maintaining an advantage over their division rivals. Ahead of their home clash against the Indianapolis Colts – the NFL‘s hottest team right now – the 41-year-old quarterback appeared to suffer a hand injury during warm-ups.

He has 16 touchdowns and just five interceptions, which has seen the Steelers take command of the AFC North over the injury-laden Cincinnati Bengals (3-5) and Baltimore Ravens (3-5) and the Cleveland Browns (2-6.)Back in October, the 10-time Pro Bowler revealed that he wants to retire as a member of the Packers where he spent 18 seasons.
